Amazon commits $50 billion to new federal AI and HPC buildout for U.S. government
The post Amazon commits $50 billion to new federal AI and HPC buildout for U. S. government appeared com. Amazon said Monday it will put $50 billion into a new buildout of AI and high‑performance computing meant only for U. S. government work under the Trump administration, according to the company’s blog post. The plan will start in 2026, when crews begin building new federal‑grade data centers with 1. 3 gigawatts of power. That is the kind of load you normally see from hundreds of thousands of American homes, not a single project. Amazon said the point is simple: the government wants stronger AI tools, and the company is preparing to deliver them through AWS. The company said federal teams will get AWS AI tools, Anthropic’s Claude models, Nvidia chips, and Amazon’s Trainium processors. These will run inside cloud regions designed to meet strict federal rules. Every part of this build sits inside a wider race among tech giants to secure long‑term contracts tied to AI systems. Amazon expands government AI push with new federal infrastructure Amazon said its move lines up with what others are already doing. Anthropic and Meta announced new AI data centers in the U. S. earlier this year. Oracle, OpenAI, and SoftBank launched their Stargate joint venture in January, a plan built around a $500 billion U. S. infrastructure spend spread out over four years. AWS said the new federal sites will let agencies build custom AI systems and clean up datasets while also helping teams “enhance workforce productivity,” a phrase the company used in its announcement. Amazon said AWS already supports more than 11, 000 government agencies, and that this investment is designed to increase that capacity. AWS CEO Matt Garman said the $50 billion plan “removes the technology barriers that have held government back and further positions America to lead in the AI era.” Matt said it was about meeting the demand that federal agencies keep bringing forward, especially as.

CNN analyst gobsmacked as White House aide hands Trump’s top foes a ‘gift’
A political commentator was stunned on Tuesday night after hearing about a series of interviews a Trump administration official gave to Vanity Fair. Susie Wiles, Trump’s chief of staff, sat for 11 interviews with the outlet over several months. The article Vanity Fair published on Tuesday included comments from Wiles calling officials like OMB Director Russ Vought a “zealot” and saying Trump is only pursuing charges against Letitia James and James Comey as “retribution.” CNN political commentator Xochitl Hinojosa discussed the revelations on CNN’s “Erin Burnett OutFront” on Tuesday night. “The whole thing is pretty stunning,” Hinojosa said. “There was a comfort level . that some officials have when they leave the administration, and they’re potentially sitting down for a book or something like that. You tend to find that that’s when you get your sort of juiciest moments, when there’s the end of an administration, like the Biden administration. That’s when we saw everybody wanted to talk, everybody wanted to say their side of the story. But she is currently sitting at the White House.” Hinojosa added that Wiles’s comments could hinder the Trump administration’s efforts to prosecute the president’s foes. “I’ll also say this is a gift to Tish James,” she said. “This is a gift to Comey. This is a gift to potentially Adam Schiff if they want to go ahead and bring charges later.”.
